Nuevo vídeo de Jaime Altozano, esta vez sobre la banda sonora de Harry Potter y la Piedra Filosofal... Y continuará
Edición 50º aniversario, remasterizada y ultra limitada:
50 years ago, the fourth Western movie directed by Sergio Leone, C'ERA UNA VOLTA IL WEST, was screened for the first time, and in the plans of the director, should have closed the circle of his engagement with this cinematic genre. Compared to the Dollars Trilogy, the movie marks an important stylistic change; it's an epic full of allegories, with an immensely powerful script. Considered by many to be Ennio Morricone's masterpiece, it marks an evolution in his music, which often takes over for the images. Exceptional collaborators such as Edda Dell'Orso, Alessandro Alessandroni and Franco De Gemini are the main actors of this score, the director of which is the Maestro. It is to one of them, Franco De Gemini, whom Beat Records in collaboration with Universal Music Publishing wish to dedicate this 50th anniversary edition, in a guise you've never experienced before.
An accurate remastering by Claudio Fuiano and Daniel Winkler corrected a few formal imprecisions of the wonderful previous editions as well as some minor stereophonic flaws, and now we can finally say we have an album that meets our expectations for such a milestone edition of this score.
But the surprises don't stop there. Five years after the death of the popular Ferraran harmonica player, the entire recording sessions of the score were discovered, over three hours long, including studio chatter from which we extracted a small recording of Franco's voice while he is conducting sound tests to find the best sound for his harmonica in a particular scene. We present this gift to you at the end of the album as a memorial to this great harmonica artisan, a sonic cameo as a little witness to his industriousness.
The CD comes in a jewel case with a richly-illustrated, 24-page booklet featuring liner notes by Daniele De Gemini. Limited to only 500 copies, it's a meeting with cinema and music history that can't be missed

Absolutamente lamentable. Indignante. Vergonzoso.

Yo no sé de qué de asombras. Ya se sabe que la cultura no vale nada, y que los que nos dedicamos a ésto, hemos de trabajar por amor al arte. Si hasta tenemos al Cristián Gálvez de curador de exposiciones. La gente que, en cambio, ha sacado la carrera -que lleva una cantidad de tiempo y dinero importante- está de cajeros, de camareros, de repartidores... Y esto, por desgracia, lleva pasando desde hace años. Pero con la crisis ha ido a peor. A muchísimo peor. Conocía a una persona que se dedicaba profesionalmente a la música: antes de la crisis, podía llegar a ganar 300 € al día. Ahora, no encuentra trabajo ni en los centros culturales de los barrios para dar clase a los niños.
Si una persona no aceptaría que la operara de apendicitis un charcutero, ni que le arreglara la gotera del garaje un sastre, ni que el ordenador se lo reparara una peluquera ¿por qué no se permite que de la cultura se ocupen los profesionales de la cultura? ¿Y qué reciban un precio justo por su tiempo y su trabajo, que vale tanto como el de cualquier otro profesional..?
A mí lo que realmente me subleva es que la gente, sabiendo ésto, seguirá comprando entradas y los productos de esta empresa -que como decís, no son precisamente baratas- para estos eventos. Y apoyando con ello a este hatajo de avaros y miserables con ello, cuando deberían hundirse en la miseria y el más profundo ostracismo.
Hay que cerrar grifos. Hay que cambiar el chip, la manera de pensar, y dejar de transigir con esto. Si dejamos de transigir todos, quizá la cosa cambie.
Como decía Cocteau, la poesía es necesaria. Aunque no sepamos para qué.

Efectivamente, la FSO es popular (y populista, no solo por los programas que suelen interpretar sino por su aparición en espacios televisivos cómo El Hormiguero y demás), pero cómo orquesta dejan bastante/mucho que desear, desde mi nada humilde opinión.
Eso si, luego se aprovechan del aficionado de a pie que no sabe apreciar las deficiencias musicales, y lo cobran a precio de oro (estuvieron hace poco en la localidad donde vivimos) . Ojo, que entiendo y valoro su labor de facilitar el disfrute de la interpretación en vivo a los aficionados de la música de cine, pero no me gustan sus aires de superioridad, de iniciativa sin parangón y de referente del país. Mucho espectaculo, mucho autobombo, pero como orquesta son cutres, y esto es objetivamente cierto. Lo de "no te pagamos pero disfrutaras del espectaculo de luces y sonido de la FSO", es tan surrealista y da muestras de un ego tan grande que asusta.
Respecto a lo que comentas, toda la razón. Parece que debido a esa superioridad moral y soberbia que comentaba se creen con el derecho de tratar a los músicos cómo trapos, que todavía han de dar las gracias por tocar en una formación tan prestigiosa.![]()
![]()
Y no tengo nada personal ni contra la formación ni contra su director; Martinez-Ors me parece un buen profesional y un competente director de orquesta.
Es una cuestión de actitud ante la vida. Quién siembra vientos...
Aunque no sea ilegal, sí es dudosamente ético: no estamos ante un evento de beneficencia o sin ánimo de lucro. La FSO ingresa mucho dinero y no veo la razón para no remunerar justamente a quien participa con su talento. Dar unos honorarios justos no debería ser un problema para las arcas de la FSO, y ofrecer la experiencia de subir al escenario a ser un actor en nuestro espectáculo debería hacerse saber a un público que abona entre 40 y 50€ por entrada.
Hay trompetistas profesionales y en cualquier caso nadie debería trabajar a cambio de un saco de arroz no tratándose, insisto, de un evento solidario o sin ánimo de lucro. Es algo que lamentablemente también está muy extendido en la creación para el cine, y sobre lo que habrá que escribir a menudo: compositores a los que se pide música para las películas a cambio de futuribles; o incluso compositores que trabajan en cortometrajes donde nadie cobra... pero que cuando se cobra (por algún premio en algún festival) nadie se acuerda de ellos.
Los músicos deben ser pagados con dinero, la música no es gratis ni debe siquiera tener la apariencia de que puede obtenerse gratuitamente allá donde otros sí van a beneficiarse económicamente de ella. Y menos haciendo pasar por oportunidad lo que es un trabajo, con todas las letras. Ni en conciertos ni en películas. Es inaceptable.
Amén.

Digamoslo claro:
De puñetera vergüenza.
¿A alguno que hayáis pedido el Potter os está tardando en salir el envío?
Hice mi pedido el día 4. Empezaban a enviar el 7 y aún sigo esperando.
¿Lo has pedido directamente de La-La Land?. En cualquier caso, paciencia, están hasta arriba.
As stated many times before, if you wanted this before Christmas it was wise to order it through us. We are literally sending out a few thousand of these things along with the other cds released. We are getting to them as quickly as we can. Our crew are working until 9...10 PM some nights processing and packing. Please be patient.
As always, please read statements carefully. We stated it will start shipping on Dec 7. START. So folks who just ordered Harry by itself, or with CDs that were in stock along with it have had their orders sent out...most of them. Our plant is literally feeding us 100s of boxes a day. We should get the rest of them this afternoon. Mr. Williams and I don't even have copies yet. Lol
Still waiting on Giants to come in and the rest of Dracula (don ask...blame the CD plants shutting down in the US).
Most stores were sent out Schindler and TWINE this week.

Sí, directamente a ellos, como siempre he hecho. La única diferencia es que nunca me registré, siempre lo hacía como cliente nuevo y esta vez sí me he registrado como usuario.

"The people who criticized lack of focus on Batman were missing the point of the character of Batman.

[QUOTE=jack napier;4313138]Sé que es muy difícil, pero ¿te parece la mejor obra de Morricone? Tengo debilidad por "Good, Bad and Ugly", es que joder, qué maravilla...
Por cierto, Branagh, a ver si te acuerdas y comentas la saga de Karate Kid de Bill Conti[/QUOTE
No se me olvida. Lo que no tengo es tiempo. También tengo a medio acabar Ben-Hur desde hace un montón de tiempo.
La mejor de Morricone me parece Erase Una Vez En América

. Estoy pensando... y el caso es que bodrios de Morricone, partituras malas de verdad, no me salen. Flojas si, porque era tremendamente prolífico. ¿Pero malas?. ¡Y sigue en activo en Italia!

Malas sí que eran algunas películas, como le pasaba a Goldsmith en los ochenta. Me viene a la cabeza "Red Sonja", un auténtico disparate de película pero con una partitura del italiano que es una gozada.

Novecento, esta si una buena película, es una debilidad personal. Gloriosa partitura. Pero si, igual que Goldsmith, vistió con grandes músicas a muchos bodrios.

Le he estado dando unas pasadas últimamente a la BSO de Rush, de Hans Zimmer. Muy, muy respetable. Lost but won, me parece una pieza muy buena, de lo mejor que ha sacado últimamente.
Por cierto, el Hanz Zimmer Tour, pasa por Barcelona y Madrid en abril de este año. Él no aparece, pero es el director creativo del espectáculo, como sabéis.
